For Summer Travelers: Prayer for the Journey

Here is an interpretive translation by Rabbi Yael of the traditional t’fillat ha derechk—the Prayer for the Journey. It is traditional to say this prayer while standing after going a little way down the path.

May the One who flows through all creation lead us toward peace.

May we go forward in peace.

May each footstep be walked in the ways of peace.

And may we arrive to our desired destination for life, expansive joy and peace.
